1997 Ford Probe Gt Hatchback 2-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Beloit, Wisconsin, United States
I am relisting my Ford Probe. I have included the questions and answers from the previous listing.
This is a stock 1997 Ford Probe GT with a manual transmission. I have owned it for over 6 years and driven it gently, and I am a non-smoker. It is great in the snow! I recently had a complete new clutch and a new fuel pump installed. It runs well. It is black with gray cloth interior, and has keyless entry, and every option available at the time--which are still working today (except one fog light is cracked). It has a Pioneer CD player with a removable faceplate and a 10 CD changer mounted in the trunk. There is a little rust on the sunroof. 178,700 miles. The starting price is below the cost of the recent repairs. I have done the usual oil changes every 3000 miles, and maintenance and repairs over the years. I put a new fuel filter and a new air filter in around August. I had new springs put on the front a few years ago. Please see answered questions below. This car needs some minor repairs. It has the usual Probe conditions of leaking valve cover gaskets and broken stabilizer bar links in the rear. I have been told it has a leaking brake caliper on the rear. I did have new pads and rotors put on the rear when they did the clutch. (How they missed the leaking caliper, idk) I have also been told it needs rear struts. I am not a mechanic, so I have been given these observations by others. I have added some pics of the dash and sun roof. It does not leak. Have added several pics. The picture of the driver's door is taken underneath to show the extent of the rust. The floor pic is taken without the floor mat to show the actual floor condition. The floor mats , and the car in general is in need of a good cleaning. It is cold and snowing here, so I really can't do that now. Some of the pics have snow in them--that is the white flecks in the pic. The wires on the passenger seat are from the CD changer, and from the in-dash stereo for a Sirius connection and a USB connection. Added a better pic of the sunroof without most of the ice....still some by the rust which is on the left side of the pic.

Ford board pushing Mulally for decision amidst fears story is drowning out other news
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Automakers and their executives rarely like to divulge information regarding future goings on, but the board of directors at Ford sound like they're getting a little antsy about chief executive officer Alan Mulally and his plans for 2014.
According to Reuters, as news of Mulally's possible departure to Microsoft continues to swirl, Ford's board is looking to push the affable executive to make a decision about his future sooner rather than later. Apparently, the board is growing concerned that this will-he/won't-he drama may end up distracting the media from covering Ford's other big news events next year - items like the debut of key all-new products like the Mustang and F-150.
So far, the picture for Mulally's eventual successor remains fuzzy, but it's understood that the leading candidate remains the company's chief operating officer, Mark Fields. Just recently, we heard that Mulally will stay until the end of 2014, but a few months ago, Ford seemed open to the idea of him stepping down earlier than that.
2015 Ford Mustang production to begin on July 14? Not quite, says Ford
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
Hot Wheels Ford Transit Connect is worth more if we keep it in the box
Wed, 06 Nov 2013If the 2014 Transit Connect is anything like it's utile current-generation predecessor, and we suspect it is, it will undoubtedly be one of the most functional vehicles in North America. Ford has used the occasion of SEMA to turn the TC in to things that both make use of that functionality, and occasionally sort of wreck it in the name of good old-fashioned fun. The Ford Hot Wheels Transit Connect most certainly falls into that second category.
Most TC owners might cite the vehicle's massive cargo capacity as its top positive trait, though in the case of this wide-bodied Transit said space has been sapped in the name of a 55-inch television screen, a massive Hot Wheels drag strip (continuing a popular theme at SEMA this year) and custom storage for dozens of models from one's personal hot wheels collection. Designers have also plucked the grippy Recaro seats from the Focus ST, and thrown in a pair of 18-inch tablet screens for connectivity on the go.
Naturally, the Transit Connect wouldn't be an appropriate SEMA vehicle, or Hot Wheels name-bearer, if it weren't wearing an eye-popping appearance package. Additional homage to the Focus RS can be found in the blazing blue and orange front fascia and bumpers, while 20-inch wheels make sure the wider (four-inches in front and six-inches in the back) Transit Connect sits just right. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder-engine that powers the Hot Wheels TC ensures that the concept is more show than go, but you probably had that pegged from your first look, anyway.
